Jaina Grantha Bhandars in Rajasthan
2501
वमि विपुल प्रादर सहित, ल्याए रतन नरेस । सौ कविकुल वंशावलि, वरणत करत सुदेस । प्रथम खडेले ते प्रगट,
जाति धर्म जिनराज। पुन पट्टन ने पाटनी,
जाको विपुल समाज । सो वर्णन सौप सौं,
दस पीढी मध्य चारि । टोडें प्रथम विचार पुनि,
पट बूदी मध्य चारि॥
सतरासे अठसठि समै, दसमी विज कुमार । लगन महरत बार मुभ, भयो ग्रन्थ तत्सार ।।

१. मवत सतरही अडसठि समै, फागुन मास सुमार ।
दममी दिन पंडित कही, नाम वृहस्पतिवार ॥२५॥ सूरदेस हरि कत सुभ, पार्सनाथ सुभ यान । तिन समीप परनी कथा, हरिकृष्ण नाम सुजान ॥२६॥
